Stats block how to put it on the front page?

How do I get the board statistics to display on the front page in a block please?

Sorry found it was looking in the wrong place. under tools, manage blocks then add a left block and then specify type as stats.  Great tools feature.

Create a statsbox in your TP Admin section

Sorry guys do you know if I have to remove the simple download module so that the downloads manager works. Do I have to upload all the files again also can't I just move them around in ftp at all?

Am asking cause I can't find the category files in ftp for the download manager.  Last time when using simple downloads I just uploaded through ftp. 

Wow its even got an upload button thats nice.  Do the uploads go to a protected area until admin approves them?

You can't just move files. TP keeps the files information in the database AFAIK. I would suggest your remove the downloads mod if you are worried about it. The uploads are restricted until an admin approves them. Unless you change that it doesn't have to be approved in the settings.

Thanks that is a relief I set it to just admins and moderators.  makes sense now with what you have said I noticed it only picked up the package in the ftp contents folder meaning the file type categories and other info etc must be stored elsewhere. I just hadn't worked out where.

Yes I will remove it and I will swap the links around so it remains in the top menu also today.  Will reupload the files and stuff.  The only problem I have is adding new categories I tried to do it on the tools but I couldn't see an option for adding categories.  Perhaps I have missed something though.  Have I please Ichbin cause I don't see it anywhere.

If you are in the download manager admin section there is a link for Add Category.

Also, the directory where all uploads are, is not possible to link into...so members can't get things from it directly. It has to go through dl manager of TP.
